Subtle, indeed. So much so it appears all of one person caught it.

Actually, I was pointing out that there might be legitimate scientific and medical reasons for doing this kind of thing. Much of our knowledge of brain function- and malfunction- was accumulated by deliberately damaging animals' brains. This could easily be a first step in helping people regain lost motor function, and if it does, I for one am all for it.

As for your invitation to self-censor myself, I respectfully decline in advance. Please feel free to ignore any posts of mine, though.
